摘要

科幻小说是技术科学想象创造的不竭源泉，它标志着一定的历史时期，并影响着主体性的产生。这种想象唤起了关于现在和未来的复杂的本体论、认识论、政治、社会、环境和存在主义问题。本研究的目的是识别和描述公众访问的文化产品，以形成对人类基因操纵的看法。对360名医科学生(70.8%为女性)进行了一项关于影响对人类基因操作意见的信息来源的调查。电影是最常被提及的信息来源，其次是书籍、纪录片、新闻节目、电视剧、信息视频、肥皂剧和电子游戏。科幻小说是最常见的类型，对人类未来的反乌托邦观点占主导地位。

Contributions of Science Fiction to Thinking up (Im)possible Future Societies: Medical Students’ Genetic Imaginary

Science fiction has been an inexhaustible source for the creation of technoscientific imaginary that has marked certain historical periods and influenced the production of subjectivity. This imaginary evokes complex ontological, epistemological, political, social, environmental and existential questions on the present and the future. The aim of this study was to identify and characterize the cultural productions accessed by the public to form an opinion about the genetic manipulation of human beings. A survey about sources of information that influence opinions on the genetic manipulation of human beings was applied to 360 medical students (70.8% female). Movies were the most commonly mentioned source of information, followed by books, documentaries, news programs, television series, informational videos, soap operas and videogames. Science fiction was the most frequent genre and dystopian views of the future of humanity predominated.
